Active grids are commonly used in wind tunnels to generate turbulence with different
characteristic features. In contrast to the common objective to generate turbulence with a …

The paper is concerned with a novel approach to generate horizontal wind gusts in classical
wind tunnels. Assuming an open test section of an Eiffel-or Göttingen-type wind tunnel, the …

This work addresses the problem of developing control algorithms for the control of the
aerodynamic lift of wind turbine blades using air injection, taking into account disturbances …

Unsteady flows are pervasive in nature and engineering applications, such as unmanned
aerial vehicles and wind turbines. Simulating these flows in an experimental setting is …

Wind energy systems, such as horizontal-axis wind turbines and vertical-axis wind turbines,
operate within the turbulent atmospheric boundary layer, where turbulence significantly …

In free-field operation, many aerodynamic systems are confronted with changing turbulent
inflow conditions. Wind turbines are a prominent example. Here, the rotation of the rotor …

This paper presents an experimental assessment of a blended fatigue‐extreme controller for
load control employing trailing edge flaps on a lab‐scale wind turbine. The controller blends …

Wind turbines operate in the turbulent atmospheric boundary layer and can be additionally
exposed to the wakes of upstream wind turbines. Hence the inflow encountered by wind …

To generate horizontal wind gusts in a classical wind tunnel, Wood, Breuer, and Neumann
[A novel approach for artificially generating horizontal wind gusts based on a movable plate …

In this study, the possibility of simulating some transient and deterministic extreme
operational conditions for horizontal axis wind turbines based on the IEC 61400-1 standard …
